Rita's Story

APPLICATION LINK: https://shaynesrescue.com/adoption-application-pet-central-satx/<br/>We must have an application to move forward.<br/><br/>In foster near Tumwater, WA<br/><br/>RITA is an absolutely sweet and easy-going female. She definitely is mixed breed but her body style and size is that of a Patterdale Terrier... a breed from Northern England bread to be strong and sturdy...capable of withstanding cold, wet, and windy weather. Rita is just that...She is 30# but not very large or tall. The phone app scanned her picture suggests that she could be part Schipperke, too. She is 7 yrs old but often acts like a puppy when running and playing with the rest of the dogs. She is calm and quiet and loves attention. She is easy on the leash; rides well in in the car. She also totally leaves my 4 cats alone. She would be good as a companion with walks around the block or visits to the lake. I would not put her with playful children. I don’t believe she’d do anything other than go to a different room. <br/><br/>Adoptions include neuter/spay, vaccinations (DHPP, Bordetella, Rabies), microchip, health certificate, transport with our professional dog transporter, and 6 mos of heart worm prevention. You<br/>will receive the dog's folder with all the printouts proving the medical treatments received.<br/><br/>Adoption Fee: Includes all of the vetting and transportation. <br/><br/>If you have any questions or would like an e-mail from us as to how all of this works, text me (Terry); identify the dog's name and give me your email address... 210-394-6060.<br/><br/>You can also go to our Facebook page...<br/>https://www.facebook.com/Pet-Central-SATX-866684826744181/<br/>and LIKE us to help us out.<br/><br/>After we review your application, we will contact you, and you will have the opportunity to find out more from their foster family or the rescue.

Shayne's Rescue's Adoption Policy
Please understand we spend all of our available resources and time saving dogs from death. We are all volunteers. Please fill out an application if you have an interest as then we can approve you to adopt any pup/dogs from us. There is no point in sending in an inquiry w/o an application, as we cannot consider someone or have them meet a dog until we have approved your application. You can ask questions in the application. We think we are most reasonable to adopt from, all we ask is you will provide a loving and supportive home as a pet guardian for the dogs entire life. If something major unforeseen occurs you will always return the dog to us, never to a shelter or anyone else. If the dog is ever to go anywhere but back to us, we do need to approve that person/family beforehand.
